Single Release: The Butterfly Girl {The Balcony Stars}

a4127662570_10‘The Butterfly Girl’ by The Balcony Stars   (Liverpool, England)

 

This is something beautifully alluring about The Balcony Stars’ single, ‘The Butterfly Girl‘. The name alone leaves you with a little sense of wonder and the visual aspect, the cover, makes your imagination run even more wild. Shoegazy rock and roll is what we have here and its laced with some late night starlight and early morning haze. It’s a song you lay in bed listening to until the moment you have to force yourself to star your day and its there for you when you need to unwind. The Balcony Stars have something special on their hands, something very special. @LeahLovecat

Single Release: Away {Julia Losfelt}

artworks-000048451753-gi0jpc-t500x500‘Away’ by Julia Losfelt   (Paris, France) *

Singer, Julia Losfelt, enjoys the extreme luxury of being partners, in multiple ways, with Parisian producer Andrea.  However, her latest track, ‘Away‘, is a product composed all her own.  You can sense that their minds share some intrinsic audio link, though now that Losfelt has put her stamp on something pure, it’s only upon examination that you begin to take note of the crucial differences, most prophetically, a more patient resolve for climactic restraint.  Regardless of this comparison, the track is amazing.  There’s no fancy way to say it, it’s so wonderfully saturated.

Single Release: Dreaming {Smallpools}

There are many different levels of being turned onto a song and why it should be appreciated in the blogosphere and abroad. Today upon discovering what will quite possibly become the most hyped song of the summer, I am all ears for that very reason. The potential for Smallpools new synth-pop, dance track ‘Dreaming‘ to take off and be heard at parties and clubs all over the world this warm season is mind blowing. The main keyboard line and Passion Pit inspired vocals are enough to grab your attention for a good 5 plays in a row and be assured that posting this track on your social media pages will make you the coolest person your followers know that day. Hard-hitting production and intelligent pop arrangement will surely bring this group to international recognition and I’m glad to have caught on in these early stages. Oh, and download that shit for free you fools! [Free Download] @thinknotsleep

Lisa {Plastic Rabbits}

Plastic Rabbits have released a pop rock single about a girl at a bar. The song titles ‘Lisa’ tells the ever relatable story about meeting someone who turns out to only be not what you though or expected. But, you’re ok with that because you didn’t care in the first place. The Leeds 5 piece have effortlessly crafted something familiar and hand it over wrapped in rock and roll. Did I mention that you can download it for free? [Free Download]

तद्भव {DIMENSIONS}

a0971264048_10तद्भव by DIMENSIONS   (Brooklyn, New York)

  

Brooklyn’s very own DIMENSIONS was a band that slipped through my radar for the past year while their combination of inspired ambiance and droning synths evolved organically.   तद्भव is the title of their most recent dual single- where each track title provides more of anthropomorphized manifesto for its growth than a witty insights (‘Folded Moments‘ and ‘Born of That‘).  Though at the end of the day, a band like DIMENSIONS is only ever meant for a niche audience and when I say meant, I feel as if im talking about fate.

Vacant Admiral EP [Grey Visions]

Jack Phinney is back as Grey Visions while taking time between Jean Jackets sets to deliver the Vacant Admiral EP, another delicate acoustic album that relies on the clever layering of parts.  The ethereal capacity of the album is something that’s always been present in Phinney’s work- though it seems to come more fully into clarity with this release. [Free Download] @Dingusonmusic

Single Release: My Body is Dumb [The Great American Novel]

a1289334133_10‘My Body is Dumb’ by The Great American Novel   (Brooklyn, New York) *

 

The Great American Novel is a powerhouse rock band from homefield Brooklyn.  The chorus’ consist of some of the most single handedly catchy and melodic lines, dredging up a deep well of influencers.  Well, ‘My Body is Dumb‘ is no different, in fact it’s the track that finally convinced me of their “powerhouse” status- leading up to the release of their next LP, slotted for any day now (this spring).

Dead Ass [Lil Kids]

1226751443-1Dead Ass by Lil Kids   (Brooklyn, New York) *

 

Brooklyn rap conman Adam Kane and production prodigy Nick Adams are back again, this time- with a new sound for Dead Ass.  It’s a rap album that samples (and often uses live recorded) rock elements flawlessly, without sounding forced, without sounding like a gimmick.  At least half of these tracks you’ve heard live if you’ve been existing in the Brooklyn DIY sphere, especially if you’ve been attending our shows.  Lil Kids does it again, and I know what I’m riding the subway to for the next few weeks.
